Gr 5-12 Concert – May 25th at 1pm & 7pm
Gr 5-12 Concert – May 25th at 1pm & 7pm
First published on 21 April 2016 Posted in District News
Dear Parents –
For several years, one of the highlights of our performance calendar has been the spring choir concert that features students in grades 5-12. Throughout the past few years, this concert has also grown to be one of our biggest. In order to address the overcrowding situation, we are going to try something new this year. This year, we are going to perform the concert entitled "Go Light Your World" twice – May 25th at 1 pm and 7 pm.
To facilitate audiences at both performances, we are going to make both of them "ticketed events". That means you must have a ticket to get in. The tickets will be available AT NO CHARGE to you by going to www.englercenter.com. These tickets will be general admission (not assigned seats) and we have put a limit of 10 per family/per performance on during the pre-sale event.
The pre-sale event will open Friday, April 22nd and run through Friday, May 6th. WHEN ORDERING TICKETS THROUGH THE PRE-SALE, PLEASE USE THE PASSWORD CHOIR TO COMPLETE THE ORDER. The window will then close for a couple of days so we can evaluate seating availability at both performances. Pending the results of our evaluation, we then plan to re-open the window with no restrictions from May 9th until the time of the performances on May 25th.
We hope that opening up a second performance will ease the audience over-crowding issue and provide a better experience for the audience and the performers. Please be sure to share this information with grandparents, friends and other relatives that plan on coming to the concert to ensure everyone who wants to see the performance is able to do so.
We sincerely appreciate your continued support of the music program at Chilton. It is a pleasure to work with your children. If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact any of us listed at the bottom of this letter and we will be happy to help you!
Sincerely –
Joy Paffenroth – MS/HS Choir Director – email@example.com – 849-2358 x. 6158
Kim Tiegs – ES/MS General Music Teacher – firstname.lastname@example.com – 849-9152 x. 2252

Re: off topic (a little)
Posted by terry on Feb 1, 2005
I'll let Lee G, Bill Thomas, John Harris and some of the other local folks down there chime in on specifics for camping and paddling. We've paddled down there many times and I've sailed there for 40 years. It's a splendid area.
I'm most familiar with the Eatern Shore, and my favorite paddling spots are the Wye River and Wye Island; the Tred Avon River and its tributiary creeks, the upper reaches of the Chester River above Chestertown, and even the upper parts of the Sassafras and Bohemia rivers. There are umpteen campgrounds down there - many with waterfrontage. I suspect if you google Maryland or Eastern Shore camping, you'll get comprehensive listings.
Late May/early June is a great time for the Eastern Shore. Much after that, and the shallower waters are generally unswimmable due to the stinging sea nettles - small jellyfish. The nettles seem to be more pervasive in the lower parts of the Bay, below the Bay bridges, but they move north as the summer progresses. It can also get pretty hot in high summer, with less cooling breeze in the afternoons than in the spring and fall.
It's a wonderful place to paddle. There are a few paddling guides in print that give routes, put-ins and other info, but I can't remember the names. Great books to read about the history, culture and wildlife of this area are Mitchener's "Chesapeake" and Warner's "Beautiful Swimmers" (a book I've read at least 10 times).
Enjoy dreaming of your vacation.

Welcome to BIPP North West Region
The North West Region of the British Institute of Professional Photography is made up of members in Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Isle of Man, Lancashire, Merseyside, Flintshire, Gwynedd, and Wrexham.
Mission Statement:
Photography can be a lonely business and making a living from it is tough.
Whether you have been stuck alone in a studio all day, spent hours in the car only to find the weather wasn't right at the shoot location, or you've been the only person at a wedding not able to relax with a glass of Champagne... we can all benefit from a chance to unwind with colleagues, set the world to rights, ask questions, share our experiences, and learn something new.
The BIPP North West Region is a relaxed community of working photographers who meet, chat, network, support each other, and learn from one another. Whatever your photographic background or discipline, come along, make some new friends and business contacts... Everyone is welcome.

NEW DATE! Wednesday 25th July 2018 - Judge's and People's Choice Print Competition and Critique
The return of an old favourite… The judge's and people's choice print competition.
Dig out those potentially award winning images from the depths of your hard drive and go head-to-head with your North West colleagues… There are six awards up for grabs:
There are three categories… Commercial (commissioned commercial photography), Social (commissioned social photography) and Open (personal, self-commissioned, fine art photography).
Each category will have a 'Judge's Choice' bronze, silver and winner judged by a very experienced BIPP and SWPP judge, and a 'People's Choice' bronze, silver and winner chosen by the photographers themselves.
Three very simple rules:
A flat entry fee of £5 (£10 for non BIPP members) for each photographer covers all their entries (15 max).
This is a great opportunity to inspire, be inspired, give and receive friendly feedback, relax and chat photography with your colleagues. We look forward to seeing you and your best work on the night.
Wednesday 22nd August 2018 - Behind the Scenes with Venture Photography
Venture Studio Stockport, 135 Wellington Road, Stockport, Cheshire, SK4 2PF - 19:30
For our first 'Roadshow' event of the year we are delighted to have been invited to the Venture studio in Stockport for a behind the scenes look at the Venture Photography operation.
We'll hear from four of Venture's key employees, each working in a different part of the business, but each a vital link in the chain.
Statham Lodge Hotel, Lymm, Cheshire, WA13 9BP
We'll be joined by Neil Redfern, current North West Wedding Photographer of the Year.
While our core meetings are held at Statham Lodge in Cheshire, we want to stretch our legs once in a while and visit other parts of the wonderful North West.
Blackpool college has arguably the best and most respected photography degree course in the UK, and we're delighted that the college are opening their doors to us. An evening for both professionals and students, we'll have a live demo in the fully equipped college studio moving on to some informal discussions with time for everyone to mingle and get to know one another.
The beauty of photography is its diversity. A wedding photographer needs a very different approach to their workflow compared to a studio photographer. But we can all learn something from hearing how other people approach similar challenges. Are you passionate about something you do, or a particular workflow you have? We want to hear from you. Clever automation, workflow tricks and time saving hacks can make us way more efficient, allow us to produce a better result for our clients, and maybe save some of the midnight oil we all burn from time to time.
A chance to learn about simple shortcuts like Photoshop actions, more advanced automation such as Keyboard Maestro, or even programming physical buttons and knobs to control software using MIDI or other interfaces.
Barry and his business partner Dave Nield run a portrait company with a twist… In Motion Portraits. Mixing action stopping photography with advertising inspired retouching, they create dynamic portraits of sports people and teams. Finding out what is involved in creating this unique end result will be fascinating.

Open the Navigation Management window, which can be used to view the full current branch of the menu tree, and edit it.
Alan Kaufman, "Born into Fire," 2007.
Special Collections, University of Delaware.
Jewish Studies at Delaware is an intellectually compelling, interdisciplinary program that offers a broad range of courses in Jewish culture, especially its literature, language, and history, as well as its ethics, politics, and philosophy. The program's courses allow you to explore two thousand years of a rich heritage and civilization, from its ancient origins to contemporary forms in the United States, Israel and in communities around the world. The study of Jewish history and culture provides a window for engaging with profound questions about modernity, including the impact of modernization on traditional Jewish life and the critical contributions that Jews have made to the modern world.
Jewish Studies is a uniquely interdisciplinary field at Delaware. Our courses are cross-listed and taught by faculty in the departments of History, English, Sociology, Philosophy, Political Science, Foreign Languages, and others. This diverse range of disciplines allows the Jewish Studies Minor to enrich many majors at the University. Courses range from small, intimate seminars to large lecture courses. Our curriculum is enriched by cultural events and lectures that bring innovative scholars and artists to campus to share their work and participate in the intellectual life of the university. The University's Special Collections at Morris Library also provides students and faculty with rare access to the papers of world-famous American Jewish writers, including Allen Ginsberg, Arthur Miller, Philip Roth, and Gertrude Stein.
The Program is housed in the Frank and Yetta Chaiken Center for Jewish Studies and was endowed with a generous gift by the Chaikens.
2017-2018 Call for proposals
The Yetta and Frank Chaiken Center for Jewish Studies is pleased to offer awards of up to $400 per academic year to support research and conference attendance in any area of Jewish Studies. All faculty and graduate students at the University of Delaware are eligible.
The subject of research or conference presentations may address any aspect of Jewish culture in the Diaspora or Israel, including history, religion, language, literature, politics, economics, demography, philosophy, and/or art. The award period runs from September1, 2017 to September 1, 2018.
Funds may be used to offset the cost of research or conference travel and attendance. Salary, stipends and equipment are not eligible for funding.
Grant recipients may be asked to present their research results as part of the Issues in Jewish Studies (JWST201) spring public lecture series, as a guest lecturer in a Jewish Studies course, or in another public forum.
To apply, send the following items in one single document to Kathleen Capallo email@example.com:
1) Brief description of the funding request.
2) Brief explanation of how the research or conference relates to the applicant's research goals or professional activities.
3) Line-item budget, including any available sources of support either requested or already granted for the research or conference.
4) One-page CV.
Requests will be considered on a rolling basis, but should be submitted at least 30 days before the intended research or conference travel commences.
The courses in the Jewish Studies program encompass the range of modern Jewish Studies, including European Jewish life, classical and modern Jewish thought, contemporary Israel, the Holocaust, American Jewish culture, as well as modern Hebrew language and literature. Our program curriculum emphasizes the varieties of modern Jewish experience around the world today. In addition to our core curriculum in modern Jewish history and culture, we also offer courses in Biblical and Rabbinic literature, as well as medieval Jewish thought and history.
The interdisciplinary minor in Jewish Studies requires 16 credits.
The interdisciplinary minor in Jewish Studies with Language requires 16 credits.
Students who wish to create their own concentration within Jewish Studies may do so with the permission of the program director. Examples of possible concentrations include, but are not limited to: Holocaust and Genocide Studies, Modern Jewish Culture, Diaspora and Transnationalism within Jewish History.

Boyz II Men is singing about its love for Wendy's Pretzel Bacon Cheeseburgers, proving that the fast-food chain is trying to get you out of those clothes, and into their restaurants.
The song starts off with the group saying, "Boyz II Men -- Turnin tweets into songs for @Wendys" and it only gets better from there. The crooners waste no time in getting down to business, praising Wendy herself, and then going straight into some bun lovin.' As the Boyz told Mashable, this isn't the first time the group has sung about buns, but it is the first time they've sung about pretzel buns.
Watch @BoyzIIMen do their thing with the things you said. #PretzelLoveSongs
— Wendy's (@Wendys) July 10, 2014
This isn't the first time Wendy's has introduced (or sung about their love for) their pretzel products. Last year, Nick Lachey sang fans' tweets in yet another pretzel ballad as part of Wendy's "Pretzel Love Stories" campaign. The campaign was so successful that they decided to make more songs, including the recently released song, "Desire: A Wendy's Pretzel Love Song Encore." The tune is dripping with all the fake drama and over-acting typically seen in such love ballads, but it also happens to be surprisingly catchy.
So far people are loving the ads, and even taking the time to show some pretzel love themselves. To become a part of the conversation (or the next pop ballad) keep submitting tweets, pics and posts to all Wendy's social media accounts. In the meantime, you can catch us singing "I'll make pretzel to you..." #platiNOM.

Now ,look at the news (AFP)-James Bond erupts in Japan -in early hours of Wednesday
------ ------ ------ ----
A series of spectacular eruptions from a volcano in southern Japan fired columns of ash and smoke thousands of metres in the air early Wednesday, with the cloud delaying some international flights to Tokyo. The 1,421-metre (4,689-feet) Shinmoedake volcano in the Kirishima range, featured in the 1967 James Bond film 'You Only Live Twice', continued the series of deafening blasts which began with the start of its first major eruption for 52 years last week. Text & photo: AFP

Now , ,What do you call? a coincidence?
We need to observe laws of nature ,as it unfolds in front of us. .The date was predicted ,actually for quake.The tidal pressure once released ,will give less magnitude quakes
we need not look at all these in isolation.

LeBron was spotted making fun of Lonzo Ball's shooting form before the Cavs loss to the Bulls. It was the third straight loss for the Cavs.
LeBron with a not-so-subtle jab at Lonzo Ball pic.twitter.com/4EuAxoCzbj— Kenny Ducey (@KennyDucey) March 30, 2017
During the game LeBron passed Shaquille O'Neal to take the 7th spot on the all-time scoring list. So he's probably earned the right to laugh at Lonzo's ugly shot.
Make way for The King: LeBron James passes @SHAQ (28,596) for 7th on the all-time scoring list! pic.twitter.com/AXoHptflTx— NBA TV (@NBATV) March 31, 2017
Although something tells me LaVar Ball isn't going to like it and will probably respond by saying Lonzo can beat LeBron one on one.

A pool cover is a great way to protect your above ground pool during the winter months, but it may not prevent air from slipping underneath the cover and damaging it.
The Winter Cover Seal does just that. It is a 500 ft long x 15″ wide piece of material made out of a unique blend of tough poly blend film that you wrap around your pool to completely seal out the wind.
The Cover Seal contains a special blend of resins that enable it to stretch and hold tightly over a long period of time, even with extremely cold temperatures, it is also packed with U.V. inhibitors so the sun won't weaken its hold.
Since Winter Cover Seal provides an airtight seal, your pool water will be clear the next spring, and you can expect an even longer life span from your winter pool cover.
To check how many times a single package will wrap around your pool click here.

Holy crap. Christmas is in 5 days, friends. Even though I am somewhat in denial about the holiday being like right now, I am proud to say I was done with my Christmas shopping and shipping on Tuesday. High five for me. But now I am in crunch mode; hunkering down and making little homemade treats for my local people and co-workers. I've made a few batches of my Rosemary Lemon Sea Salt and now I am on to these guys...
Truth be told, I can't stop snacking on these myself. I NEED to give them away fast. More truth, I'll probably just stash a jar away for a little treat here and there.
These little jewels take a bit of time to make, but they are totally worth it. Your dentist will hate you, but everyone else will love you. It's just your dentist, you see them twice a year, who cares right?!
Candied Orange Peels
Adapted from Epicurious
6 large naval oranges
4 cups of water
4 cups of sugar, plus more for rolling
Cut the tops and bottoms off each orange. Make about 6 slits along curve from top to bottom of each orange, cutting slightly through peel but not into fruit. Using your fingers, gently remove peel. Slice each piece of peel lengthwise into 1/4 inch wide strips. Trim excess pith from each strip. You can use a vegetable peel for this if that's helpful.
Place peels in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes. Drain, rinse, and repeat.
Bring 4 cups of sugar and 4 cups of water to a boil over medium heat, stirring to make sure the sugar dissolves. Add the peels, return to a boil, then and reduce heat to a simmer for an hour without stirring. Once the peels are translucent in color, turn off the heat and let the peels cool for about 5-10 minutes in the syrup.
Using a slotted spoon or fork, transfer the peels to a rimmed baking sheet and toss with sugar, separating each strip. Transfer the peels to a wire rack, piece of foil or parchment paper to dry. Coating will take about 24 hours to dry.
You can use any kind of citrus. I had oranges on hand, but I think grapefruit or lemon would be yummy.
Save the fruit for other uses - I froze mine for smoothies. Save the sugary simple syrup by straining it through a fine mesh sieve or strainer and use it for cocktails or pancakes!

I performed the tests on /scratch partition writing the log in /. I did it twice one mounting and unmounting the fs at each test so to delete any trace of information from the buffer cache and one leaving the fs mounted between tests. Tests were automatically repeated for sizes from 64kB to 4GB and record length between 4kB - 16384kB. Iozone automatically doubles the previous sizes at each test (4GB is the smallest multiples smaller than the 5GB file size limit I set).
From the numbers ext4 performs much better in writing while reading is basically the same if not slightly worst for smaller files. There is a big drop in performance for both file systems for the 4GB size.
What however I find confusing is that I did the tests again setting the max size of the file at 100M and doing only write tests and ext3 takes less time despite (22 secs vs 44s in this case) despite the numbers saying that writing is almost 40% faster there is something that slows the tests down (deleting?). Speed of tests become similar for sizes >500MB they both decrease steadily until they finally drop at 4GB for any record length in both file systems.
Below some results mostly with the buffer cache because not having it affects mostly ext3 for small sizes of file and rec length as shown in the first graph.
EXT3: write (NO buffer cache)
EXT3: write (buffer cache)
EXT4: write (buffer cache)
EXT3: read (buffer cache)
EXT4: read (buffer cache)

Katherine Mitchell cut her artistic teeth as part of the Minimalist coterie that flourished at the Atlanta College of Art in the 1970s. Influenced by such movement patriarchs as Dorothea Rockburne and Sol LeWitt, she has made repetition and the grid cornerstones of her art.
Mitchell is given to working in series that spring from visual aperçus — the pattern of the stairs at the Whitney Museum, say, the path of the cobblestone streets seen from the windows of her studio during a residence in Germany, the undulation of currents in water.
In a departure from her usual modus operandi, the Atlanta artist has spent the last three years making drawings, paintings and collages inspired by reading and thinking. Words and numbers are the building blocks in "Correspondences, Conversations, and Text" at Sandler Hudson Gallery through Jan. 9.
Mitchell uses them every which way to create rich visual effects. Words appear in cursive and block printing. Numerals might be simple or stencil-style. They might appear as veils of marks, layered to suggest depth. In some pieces, they coil in spirals.
Though she limits color to black, white and gray (a reference to texts?) in many pieces, Mitchell deploys the hues so deftly to create and enhance the patterns that one hardly notices the absence of color in those works until it appears in another one.
The words in particular are barely legible. Mitchell's taped recitations can be heard in the gallery, however, and written versions are available. They consist of quotations from and her responses to philosophers and artists. These are more like notebook entries than formal essays, efforts to clarify her own thoughts on the nature of art, beauty, truth.
Mitchell is hardly the first artist to use text as form. Her writing isn't a forum for original thought or stunning epiphany. Yet her experimentation with words and numbers has produced some of her most visually satisfying work, and the recitation adds a revelatory intimacy to an oeuvre that usually hides its emotions beneath its meticulous, mathematical surface.
The exhibit demonstrates that, like a mantra — the chanted abstract sound and the title of one of Mitchell's series — the methodical repetition of shapes and lines is, and always has been, the artist's vehicle to her spiritual core.

In addition to driving an Outlook 2013 client to test an Outlook-compatible email server, MailSim can now interact with an Office 365 user account to perform the same email and folder operations. The purpose for this addition is to showcase the ability to use REST to connect to, and interact with, the Office 365 service.
Note: As MailSim is open source, you are welcome to update the new code with your own ideas.
Also, MailSim's REST providers can be used to test "man in the middle" network component(s) between the MailSim process and the Office 365 account, such as a network accelerator, a virus scanner, or a compliance enforcer.
Figure 1: MailSim updates for REST capability
MailSim calls the new Office 365 REST (Representational State Transfer) API to perform all existing MailSim operations: send and reply to email messages, create and move folders, and so forth. See the initial MailSim blog post for an example of each operation.
MailSim has two types of REST interfaces, one using direct HTTP calls to send and receive requests and responses, and one calling the Office 365 SDK to create and process request and response messages.
Note: To work with an Office 365 user account, MailSim must be registered with the Azure Active Directory for that account - see REST prerequisites.
New configuration file
There is only one change to the existing sequence and operations files: the DisableOutlookPrompts choice moved from sequence files to the new global Options.config file. There may be many sequence files and operations files, but there's only one Options.config file. Options.config specifies the type of interface (Outlook Object Model, HTTP REST, or SDK REST) and the interface's startup information, such as the Office 365 account's username and password.
Further reading
All the new additions are described in the MailSim User Guide, primarily in the section titled Office 365 REST mode.
The code updates are described there in Under the hood.

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot forms in the veins that are deep in the legs or pelvis, and sometimes in the arms. The clot damages the vein wall and the tiny valves that prevent blood from flowing backwards. The condition can be fatal if a portion of the clot breaks off and travels to the lungs, where it blocks blood vessels. About half of the people who develop DVT do not get an early diagnosis because they have none of the usual symptoms of pain, swelling and redness. Early intervention for deep vein thrombosis can prevent a serious condition.
Some of the symptoms of DVT are:
• Pain in the area of the vein
• Discoloration of the legs
• Tenderness in the calves
• Swelling of the lower leg
• Warmth in the skin
• Visible surface veins
• Fatigue in the legs
Another reason why early intervention is important is that it is crucial to treat DVT before it becomes chronic. Once the clot is more than six weeks old, it becomes very difficult to treat because it becomes part of the vein wall. Surgery may only exacerbate the condition and may prompt more clots to form. It is especially important to treat younger patients early because it is likely the deep vein thrombosis will reoccur.
Some of the risk factors for developing DVT are:
• Long periods of immobility, including bed rest or sitting
• A family history of DVT
• Previous DVT
• Oral contraceptives or hormone therapy
• Above the age of 40
• Coagulation abnormalities
• Obesity
• Orthopedic procedures
• Pregnancy and after pregnancy
• Current or previous cancer
• Recent surgery
Deep vein thrombosis may also occur during long economy-class flights that are more than four hours. It can occur on any trip in which the person is sitting in a cramped condition for long periods because of immobility and dehydration. This is because the blood flow slows down or stops. Some of the things you can do to prevent DVT from developing during travel is to avoid alcohol, drink a lot of water or other fluids, take aspirin and go on frequent walks.
There are several tests our specialist may use to diagnose DVT. If you are younger than 40 and undergoing minor surgery, you may be considered at low risk if surgery is your only risk factor. We may prescribe compression stockings, walking and range-of-motion exercises as soon as possible after surgery, elevating your legs above your heart and drinking plenty of fluids.
If you are a moderate or high-risk patient, there are other treatments that will help prevent blood clots from forming. High-risk patients are just about anyone who has surgery and is above 60 years old.
Early intervention for deep vein thrombosis is associated with an improved outcome, and if the blood clot is not treated or removed, there is a high risk of recurrence. When DVT is diagnosed early, it does not have time to damage the venous valves and their function can be preserved. You may still have the chance to maintain healthy veins.
At Premier Vein Institute, we are committed to diagnosing and treating deep vein thrombosis as early as possible to ensure the best possible outcome for the patient. For your convenience, we have locations in Tampa, St. Petersburg, Riverview and Lakeland. Contact us today to schedule your appointment to learn more.

Clark University students are aspiring psychologists, communication specialists, international developers, scientists, educators … and writers.
For students whose passion is the written word, The Worcester Journal provides a public outlet for their prose.
The online magazine, launched in the fall of 2014, gives promising new writers and photographers in Central Massachusetts and beyond an opportunity to produce, edit, publish, and distribute their work in an attractive, professional form. The magazine publishes all types of writing — nonfiction, fiction, essays, reviews, and poetry — but emphasizes thoroughly researched and creatively presented nonfiction pieces.
The Spring 2015 issue features stories by Jeremy Levine '15, Nick Porcella '15, Orfa Torres Fermín '15 and Sasha Kohan '16. Others who contributed to past issues include Thomas Matthews '17, Thomas Anania '16 and Audrey Dolan '17. Works of student writers from Northeastern University and Bryant University also appear in the spring magazine.
The journal is the brainchild of James Dempsey, M.A. '78, retired columnist for the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, author and professor of literature and writing at WPI. "I always found that students who are exposed to a real-world audience, rather than to a single, often overworked, instructor, [produce] better ideas, more thorough research, and more readable writing," Dempsey said. He seized the chance to make the Journal a reality when he was offered support from the Judy and Tony King Foundation and the Bancroft School in Worcester, which gives him an office and a physical home for the Journal.
Levine, an English major, serves as the Journal's assistant contributing editor. He learned about the magazine through faculty and online research. "I wanted to get a little bit more experience with writing and editing, so it seemed like a perfect opportunity," he said. Matthews is the other contributing editor.
The writers address subjects that interest them — and that they believe will be of interest to readers. "It's not so much the process of sitting in front of a blank page and saying 'Golly, what am I going to write about,'" said Levine, who was editor of The Scarlet his senior year. "Instead it's noticing what you think a lot about. I wrote two pieces this semester, both of which were things that I found myself mulling over in my idle time. Once I realized that I had already put a decent amount of thought into them, it only seemed to make sense to write about it."
Dempsey said he receives submissions in various stages of completion.
"Some pieces come to me just about finished, others need work, yet others need to be rethought from the very beginning," he said. "The idea is that we forget about grades and about the teacher-learner paradigm. The [goal is that the] young writer and I are working together to achieve a publishable piece of writing."
In "Speaking in Tongues," Fermín, an English major, wrote about something personal: the struggle of constantly switching between her native language, Spanish, and English. She details the confusion when dealing with gestures and social interactions, and describes the difficulty of feeling a true sense of culture.
"By the end of this century, the Latino community will comprise the biggest minority group in the United States," she writes. "By that time, since the use of Spanish is seldom encouraged, English, and not Spanish will be the mother tongue of most Latinos. This notion creates a problem for Latinos who are caught between two cultures and deal with the complexities of living between two languages on a daily basis."
The Journal is always accepting new ideas and encourages unique, and original writing. Learn more about the submission process or how to get involved with The Worcester Journal, or emailquestions to Dempsey.

Introduction to Data Science
Offered by Jadavpur University in collaboration with Dygitech
Data Science refers to the extraction of knowledge from large volumes of data (i.e. Big Data) that are structured or unstructured, which is continuation of data mining and predictive analytics. It involves different categories of analytical approaches for modeling various types of business scenarios and arriving at solution and strategies for optimal decision-making in marketing, finance, operations, organizational behavior and other managerial aspects. This new field of study breaks down into a number of different areas, from constructing big data infrastructure and configuring the various server tools that sit on top of the hardware, to doing the analysis and developing the right transformations to output useful results.
THE MCKINSEY GLOBAL INSTITUTE has predicted that by 2018, the US alone could face a shortage of between 140,000 to 190,000 people with deep analytical skills, and a shortage of 1.5 million managers and analysts who can leverage data analysis to make effective decisions for their organizations. So it is quite obvious that existing resource along with new candidates who are interested in perusing career in this field needs to be trained.
About Post Graduate Diploma in Data Science & Industrial Applications
The Post Graduate Diploma in Data Science& Industrial Applications (PGDDSIA),a unique 12 month program affiliated by Jadavpur University, Kolkata , is an excellent blend of knowledge and practice in the field of Data Science and its industrial applications. The program is targeted for creating qualified Data Science professionals along with 576 hours of hands-on real – life project experience to the participants. The students would be well equipped with strong analytical, programming and business management skills and highly demanding and employable on completion of the program.
What makes PGDDSIA Different and Unique?
This is in order to help fresh graduates to prove they are not only academically qualified but also industry ready and experienced. Most of the time the academic records of fresh graduates is questioned by the business community; consequently the ability of the students to work independently from day one remains a concern. Our PG diploma program addresses this concern. The program has been developed in partnership with the business community and aims to give opportunities to all young undergraduates to demonstrate the value they would bring to the workplace.
The objective of this program is to make Data Scientists and not the Data Analyst.
There is a huge demand for resources skilled in Data Science. Our objective is to create a pool of talent who can meet this demand. This course is meant to sensitize students for machine learning and computational statistics applications and usage as well as provide hands-on experience with solving real world data science issues. Aspiring students will learn working with open source statistical tools like R and some very good visualization tools and techniques.
Our projects are developed in consultation with industry experts, and are recognized in the industry. The program nurtures research and innovations and gives full freedom and guidance to students to hone their talent in their own way. The program also encourages students to write articles, papers, developing software, open discussions etc. The students will learn the technical aspects of the latest technology (how technology works) and also be able to know the functional applications of the technology (how various industries apply that technology in their regular works).
The program implements Innovative Execution Methodology that allows everyone some personal attention and the chance to be noticed. It is participatory, informal, emphasize on problem-solving and demands active participation of the students. It also introduces new concepts, spurring participants to investigate further on their own and/or encourage and demonstrate the practice of actual methods. The program is conducted by the project managers having real industry experience on the topics under discussion and represents the employers who hire resources. Dygitech has innovated and adopted the best alternatives to Traditional Testing and evaluation of students that is based on independent project work and presentation at the end of each module made by every student and judged for its creativity, content & delivery.
Learning Outcomes
After completion of the program the students will be able to perform the following data science roles and responsibilities independently under the any data intensive sector and especially under Retail, Insurance, Healthcare and Financial Services.
The students will execute the following activities under the supervision of domain experts:
- Extracting data from multiple internal and external sources
- Thoroughly cleaning and censoring data to discard irrelevant information
- Exploring and examining data from a variety of angles to determine hidden weaknesses, trends and/or opportunities
- Employing sophisticated analytics programs, machine learning and statistical methods to prepare data for further uses
- Devising data-driven solutions to the most pressing challenges
- Inventing new algorithms to solve problems and build new tools to automate works
- Recommending cost-effective changes to existing procedures and strategies
- Communicating predictions and findings to management and associated departments through effective data visualizations and reports
- Conducting research and frame open-ended industry problems and solutions
The students will also be able to understand the roles and responsibilities of Business Analyst, Data Architect, Data Engineer, Quantitative Analyst, Business Statistician, and Actuarial Analyst.
